The article is devoted to an actual topic on the economic and environmental risk of activities related to high risk objects. Such topic has not been practically investigated in domestic economic and legal science. The scientific article contains the key words related to the economic and ecological risk of the mentioned activity, substantiates its scientific and practical relevance in the context of legal support in the conditions of sustainable socio-economic development, as well as guaranteeing the ecological and overall safety of activities related to the high-risk objects. The author notes the research of scientists who have developed problems of economic, commercial, industrial, economic risk, in particular its legal aspects: Prof. A.G. Bobkova, prof. O.V. Bigniak, prof. O.M. Vinnik, prof. I.F. Koval, prof. V.L. Musiyaka, prof. V.V. Reznikova, prof. N.O. Saniakhmetova, prof. R.O. Stephanchuk and others. These scientists have revealed character and peculiarities of risks in economic activity. Some of them have also focused attention on the establishment of legislative restrictions on environmental safety of production, compliance with safety requirements for life and health of people. The author also points out the scientific works on legal environmental risk, highlights peculiarities of its legal nature. The article thoroughly and comprehensively presents the main results of the study, analyzes laws and other normative acts of Ukraine, the United Nations Conventions and documents of the European Union. This allowed the author to conclude on the presence of economic and environmental risk in terms of its adverse effects on the environment, life and health of the population. Based on the analysis of theoretical sources, evaluation of the domestic legislation, the author proposes the definition of economic and environmental risk, as a formal legal basis for the emergence of obligations of economic entities to eliminate the risk in the event of this risk, eliminate its consequences. He also proposes to introduce appropriate amendments to the Article 16 of the Constitution of Ukraine and the Economic Code of Ukraine, regarding the establishment of additional security guarantees for the security of economic activity related to high-risk objects.
